php-mf2-shim
============

[](#php-mf2-shim)

An extension for [php-mf2](https://github.com/indieweb/php-mf2) which screen-scrapes some sites which don’t support [microformats2](http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2) into canonical microformats data structures to make them easy to consume.

Supported sites:

- **twitter.com** — tweets are parsed as h-entries with h-card authors, replies to tweets on permalink pages are parsed
- **facebook.com** — post permalink pages are parsed as h-entries with h-card authors

Work-in-progress:

- instagram.com — no support right now

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install php-mf2-shim with Composer by adding "mf2/shim": "0.2.\*" to the require object in your composer.json and running `php composer.phar update`.

You could install it by just downloading php-mf2, /Mf2/functions.php, /Mf2/Shim/\*.php and including those, but please use Composer. Seriously, it’s amazing.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

mf2-shim is PSR-0 autoloadable, so all you have to do to load it is:

- Include Composer’s auto-generated autoload file (/vendor/autoload.php)
- Call Mf2\\Shim\\parseTwitter() or parseFacebook() with the HTML (or a DOMDocument), and optionally the URL to resolve relative URLs against.
